When the sound of drums representing the proceedings spread throughout Xiakou City, all the Wu generals in the city rushed towards Lu Xun's general's palace as if they had heard the sound of nature.
As Quan Cong just reported, the military morale in Xiakou City has been shaken to pieces by the news of the fall of Yong'an.
If not, how could Xiakou City, where many heroes gather, allow many rumors to spread?
For many Wu generals, Lu Xun was undoubtedly their backbone.
What they need most now is for Lu Xun to come out and stabilize the overall situation.
Due to the urgency in their hearts, many Wu generals did not even have time to hold an umbrella and drive, so they went straight to the general's residence in the pouring rain.
Seeing the appearance of Wu generals who were like drowned rats, Lu Xun asked his servants to prepare soup to warm up his body, and at the same time he secretly cheered himself up and said:
"With so many good generals who care about national affairs, Da Wu's national destiny will never die halfway!"
Only about half an hour had passed, and all the Wu generals who were qualified to participate in the discussion gathered in the conference hall where Lu Xun was.
The heavy rain outside the hall was still heavy, and the loud sound of rain kept hitting the hearts of every Wu general, making their breathing become more and more rapid with age.
The hall where dozens of Wu generals gathered was completely silent at this moment.
None of the Wu generals took the initiative to speak, they were all looking at Lu Xun.
They very much hoped that Lu Xun could save Da Wu.
After noticing the panic and expectant gazes of the Wu generals, Lu Xun said calmly:
"I heard rumors in the city that Yong'an was captured by Mi Yang. I have verified this. It is purely false."
When Lu Xun said these words, the panic in the eyes of the Wu generals instantly dissipated a lot.
It is true that Yong'an is an important town in Soochow, but the loss of Yong'an City alone cannot make all Wu generals panic to the point of losing their minds.
They felt extremely panicked before because they thought that Mi Yang was currently in Yong'an City as the rumors said.
Now that Lu Xun opened his mouth to label this rumor as a rumor, it undoubtedly made them extremely nervous and gave them a lot of breathing space.
In fact, in such a short period of time, even if Lu Xun sent people out to verify, the results would not come out so quickly.
But Lu Xun knew very well that his judgment was accurate.
Being able to make the judgment that everyone is drunk and I am alone is not Lu Xun's wisdom. Compared with many Wu generals, there is really a big gap.
But compared to the generals of Soochow, Lu Xun had never been afraid of Mi Yang in his heart.
And Lu Xun knew that if the generals of Soochow were not allowed to regain their sanity, then all his subsequent plans would be in vain.
Lu Xun's idea is correct.
After Lu Xun finished speaking, the originally silent meeting hall seemed to come alive and suddenly became noisy.
"If the Mi thieves are not here, Han Zong will only have a few thousand Jiefan soldiers."
"Although Han Zong is the queen of Han Gong, I know that he has no merit in military strategy."
"Your Majesty should be promptly informed of the news of Han Zong's rebellion. Some of the Jiefan army are personal soldiers of King Huan of Changsha.
As long as His Majesty issues an edict to clarify Han Zong's crimes, I think some of the Jiefang soldiers will wake up."
...
Every Wu general present here is either actively sharing their understanding of Han Zong, or actively offering advice to Lu Xun.
If you listen carefully, some of the suggestions do have merit.
But Lu Xun felt that those suggestions were all side effects after all.
"The most important thing for our army at the moment is to lead the army to the outside of Yong'an City in time and isolate the inside and outside of Yong'an City.
Han Zong dared to plot rebellion, and there must be Mi Yang's instructions behind it.
And with Mi Yang's wolfish ambition, will he remain indifferent after learning about Han Zong's behavior?"
Lu Xun pointed out the key to quelling Han Zong's rebellion.
Mi Yang's reinforcements must not be allowed to enter Yong'an City!
After listening to Lu Xun's words, the entire meeting hall fell into silence again.
After a long time, a general stood up and said: "What the general said is true.
However, there is a sudden heavy rain today, so our army might as well wait until the heavy rain subsides before planning to dispatch troops."
The one who said these words was none other than Zhenxi General Bu Zhi.
As Bu Zhi finished speaking, many Wu generals showed approval on their faces.
The rainy weather has a great impact on the march of the army.
Of course, this is also true for the Han army.
Therefore, Bu Zhe would start from the actual situation and put forward a suggestion that he thought was safer.
But after Lu Xun listened to Bu Zhi's words, he asked Bu Zhi:
"Does Han Zong think the same as Qing?"
Facing this question suddenly thrown out by Lu Xun, Bu Zhi was stunned for a moment.
Do you even need to ask?
Han Zong grew up in Jiangdong, and he naturally knows as much about the negative impacts of heavy rains as he does.
Why would the general ask such a simple question?
Bu Zhao's doubts didn't last long. The next moment, an answer vaguely emerged in his mind.
Could it be!
Bu Zhi was about to look at Lu Xun, but at this moment Lu Xun's words came:
"The terrain where Yong'an City is located is very stable, the grain is abundant, and the defensive equipment in the city is also very complete.
These were all prepared by me in Yongan earlier.
Now that Yong'an has fallen into the hands of Han Zong, it is not easy for our army to attack such a strong city.
But no matter how strong a city is, it still needs people to defend it.
Han Zong has an arrogant personality and is well aware of the disadvantages of heavy rainy weather to the march, so he will definitely think that he will have nothing to worry about in the short term.
Such thoughts would make Han Zong careless.
The enemy has a fortified city. If our army does not attack when the enemy is careless, how long will it take?"
Lu Xun slowly expressed his opinion.
Do Lu Xun’s words make sense?
There must be some, but...
Listening to the loud pounding of rain in their ears, many Wu generals still could not get rid of their hesitations.
Lu Xun saw the hesitation of many Wu generals, he straightened his expression and said:
"Marching in bad weather is a very difficult thing.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But our army also did this kind of thing back then."
As soon as Lu Xun said these words, many Wu generals had expressions of memories on their faces.
then?
Does it refer to the time when King Huan of Changsha was there?
Orphaned and widowed, they crossed the river to fight, faced unfavorable situations several times, and narrowly escaped death several times.
But in the end, it was they who stood proudly on the land of Jiangdong!
Many of the Wu generals present were veterans from the Sun Ce era.
Under Lu Xun's words, they couldn't help but recall the soul-stirring and glorious years more than ten years ago.
Yes, they could do it back then, so why can’t they do it now!
"Han Zong's rebellion is like a huge wave, violently impacting the state of Wu."
"If we continue to hesitate, this huge wave will sweep us all into the endless deep sea."
"I don't want to be food for fish and shrimps."
"Those who are willing to join me in controlling the huge waves and calming the storms can stand up!"
After saying this, a firm figure slowly stood up.
Infected by this determined figure, an old sigh sounded in the meeting hall.
“I don’t know whether it’s a blessing or a curse to have to do this kind of thing when I’m older.”
Although these words were full of helplessness.
But the owner of the voice also stood up with his old body supported.
This person is none other than Lu Dai, one of Jiangdong’s veterans.
After Lu Dai stood up, Quan Cong, Zhu Ran, Zhu Huan, Pan Zhang, Ma Zhong and other Wu generals also stood up after looking at each other.
One person leads another person, and a group leads a group.
At the end, the entire conference hall was filled with Jiangdong men standing straight.
"We all wish it!"
Since Sun Quan came to power, men from Jiangdong have often been laughed at and called rats.
But it is undeniable that for Sun Quan to be ranked as one of the three emperors in the world, Jiangdong is not without heroes.
The difference lies in who leads them.
Looking at the upright figures in front of him, Lu Xun finally showed a smile on his face:
"It's so good that you and I walk together in the wind and rain!"
